The prices will knock our socks off so low. That's why there's no hanging around for hours once your meal is finished. Pay up and let the next folks sit down and enjoy the fun.

Appropriately the walls are covered with old movie posters.

Space is tight like all over Paris. We sat upstairs on a little balcony overlooking the bar below.

Not an inch is wasted here and the staff could not be more friendly or accommodating.

Solli used to be a regular before she moved and they would sit her at a table to share with three others - a great way to improve your French. Regular diners get to have their own napkins saved just like in the old days.

The food is pretty straightforward, but it's the Frenchie atmosphere you come for. There are 3 Au Pied de Fouets. They are all 150 years old. Another Don't Miss!

I've heard of bars where you can keep your own mug, but the napkin thing is new to me…they much launder the napkins for you, so do you need a few days' supply if you're a regular? I like to worry about things that can't possibly apply to me.

We actually ate at this resto at 3, rue Saint-Benoit in the 6th near the rue Jacob and really close to the flat we were staying at on the rue Bonaparte. It looks exactly the same! They have maybe three locations in the 6th, the 7th and maybe the 11th?

What a fantastic evening that must have been. Both the cinema and restaurant exude so much charm. Was the movie in French? With or without subtitles? What did you eat? I've not heard of the YSL movie yet here- just checking IMDB and they only list a few European release dates.

Hi I'm Carol Gillott,
My Mom taught me watercolors at 5. I'm still at it, now tripping over cobblestones, living in a 6th-floor garret on l'Ile Saint-Louis, Paris. Read Parisbreakfast with a hot chocolate and croissant.
